i'll some danger from the wild tribes in his
rear does not surprise those who kepta close
watch of affairs in the Congo.
These persons were more surprised that
Stanley should venture to trust himself or
the fate of his expedition to the supposed
loyalty of this chief, Tippoo Tip is the
chief of wild tribe. the headquarters of
which are about Stanley Falls, and who has
always successfully contested the Europeans
who have desired to pass above the falls till
the day of Stanley. The latter exercised
moral influence over this chief. and il is be
heved that it is due in considerable measure
To his friendship that Stanley has been able

Tippoo Tib is the richest man in the Con
go. He is possessed of large wealth oh
tanned it is supposed chiefly from the profits
of the slave trade. He is the dictator of
the region in which he lives, and has always
had great influence over the other tribes in
that locality.
\ gentleman who recently arrived in Great
Britain from Brussels, which is the head
quarters of the European company which is
attempting to establish settlements in the

COMMERCIAL UNION.
What Portland's Business Men Think
About It.--Edward Atkinson's Propo-
sition Receives Severe Criticism.

PORTLAND. Nov. Is
Tomorrow the Argus, which is taking an
active part in discussing the fisheries
controversy with Canada of any Maine paper,
VIII publish from three to four columns of
interviews with Portland business men, on
the proposal of Edward Atkinson of Boston
10 settle the commercial relations dispute by
purchasing the maritime provinces for $50
900 900.
Mr.. Atkinson's proposition is generally
considered an impracticable one to carry out
as Great Britain would not be likely to sell.
The gentlemen who are for annexation but
do not believe it possible at present, and who
propose commercial union or a renewal of
reciprocity as a substitute include Hon. g.
+. Talbot, exMayor Walker. Daniel w
True, James z. Baxter, Gen. John Marshall
Brown and ex-Mayor Deerng.
Gen Brown, speaking from the military
point Of view, says that England will never
consent to surrender her great fortified
stronghold at Halifax. The fishing owners
ridicule Atkinsoas plan and declare that they
have got enough of Canada Some gentle
men are opposed TO annexation, union or
reciprocity. few are convinced that an
nexation will never take place.
The article gives all shades of opinion but
brings out strong sentiments in favor of rec
lprocity and freer trade relations
While deeming the project of Mr. Atkin-
son unpractcable at present, the Argus ex-
presses the opinion that the discussion begun
by him will lead up to commercial union and
perhaps eventually to annexation. 1t be
ieves the majority of Maine people favor
commercial union, but are Indifferent to an
nexation

A GENERAL SUSPENSION.
Is Decided Upon by the Manufacturers
of Bessemer Rails
pITTsHIEG Nov. |.

PITTsHI RG, Nov. Is.
4 conference between the Besscmer rail
manufacturers of the country of which there
were twelve in number, is exciting widespread
interest. 1t has been definitely and author-
lively settled that all those manufacturers
who have been for years working harmoni-
ou>ly together have decided to order gen
era suspension of work, and that while the
time has not been fixed it is expected that
it will occur on the first of December.
The cause of this suspension is the unsat-
isfactorv condition of the rail market.
Many contracts are expiring aud new ones
are being held in hopes of lower prices.
Others are willing TO place contracts but
term, are entirely unsatisfactory. Manufac-
turers say that prices cannot be reduced,
owing to high wages and rates demanded for
rent. The suspension will throw an immense
number of men out of empoyment not only
in mills but in the coke regions of this sec
tion.
1t is estimated that fully onc-third of the
coke output will be thrown on the market.
and this will only reduce the price, but may
result in a shutdown of a large proportion of
the ovens
